THE HORSE PLANTER IS #18 ON THE LIST OF THE TOP 100 MCCOY FINDABLES!  PRODUCED IN THE 1940’S, PLANTER HAS THE OVERLAPPING MN, USA MARK ON BACK (DIFFICULT TO SEE DUE TO GLAZE FILL-IN).

THE INTERIOR CRAZING HAS DARKENED (FROM POTTING SOIL) AND THE EXTERIOR HAS A FEW PLACES THAT HAVE SLIGHTLY DISCOLORED (SEE PHOTOS). THIS DISCOLORATION OCCURS WHEN A POTTERY ITEM HAS CRAZING AND IS CLEANED WITH A PRODUCT CONTAINING BLEACH. DO NOT BE DETERRED BY MY DESCRIPTION – THIS IS A NICE PLANTER THAT CAN BE ENJOYED AND USED AS INTENDED. NICE ITEM, NICELY PRICED.

#2992 – MCCOY POTTERY – “NO HUNTING” BIRD DOG PLANTER - $250.00

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL MCCOY “NO HUNTING” PLANTER! THIS ITEM WAS PURCHASED AT THE SAME ESTATE SALE AS OUR ITEM #2991 PLANTER. THIS ONE HAS RICHER COLORING – GREENS ARE DARKER AND THE “NO HUNTING” SIGN STILL HAS ITS ORIGINAL COLD PAINT. PLANTER IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION BUT AS SOMETIMES HAPPENS BETWEEN VIEWING THE ITEM AND ACTUALLY PURCHASING IT, THE BIRD SUSTAINED A VERY LIGHT GLAZE DING (IN THE EDGE OF THE BLUE COLOR). IT COULD BE EASILY REPAIRED, COLOR TOUCHED-UP, OR JUST ENJOYED AS IS BECAUSE IT’S NOT GLARINGLY NOTICEABLE! CONSIDERING THE DARKER COLORING AND OVERALL EXCELLENT CONDITION OF THIS PLANTER, I DO NOT CONSIDER THIS TO BE DETRIMENTAL –IT’S A BEAUTIFUL PLANTER!

THE UNDERNEATH OF A BIRD'S BEAK HAS A 1/16" DING AND PLANTER'S INTERIOR BOTTOM HAS SOME UNDERGLAZE DARKENING (A RESULT OF CLEANING WITH A PRODUCT CONTAINING BLEACH). DO NOT BE DETERRED BY MY DESCRIPTION -- THIS IS A LOVELY PLANTER, IS RATHER DIFFICULT TO FIND, AND IS A GREAT ADDITION TO A COLLECTION.
